How to get Facebook and WhatsApp for Nokia 8110 4G
Download and install software version 15.00.17.03 to your phone. It is available over-the-air (OTA). Just dive into your Settings -> Device Information -> Software Updates.
It is a very small update, weighing in at roughly 32 MB. All KaiOS system and app updates are small by design. It is an operating system designed primarilly for emerging markets after all.
After installing the update and the phone has restarted, launch the KaiStore app, and you will find both the WhatsApp and Facebook apps waiting in there to be downloaded.
Select them one after the other to download them. There are a number of other apps, including Google Maps, Google Assistant, Twitter and YouTube, available in the Store. See our hands-on article, Hands-on with YouTube, Google Maps, Assistant, KaiStore on Nokia 8110 4G.
